It was quite snug, but the owner must have been relatively petite as I could also reach the pedals

Re: Recap of the English F1 fleet - Take 2...

it must be in better condition than in Carugati showroom.

I wonder if the car is private owned or belongs to DK ?

Re: Recap of the English F1 fleet - Take 2...

The car had been 'detailed' since leaving Carugati and it looked in great condition - the engine bay was immaculate, and apparently the undertray is spotless too. The headlining was a little worn in places, possibly caused by over-enthusiastic cleaning by the detailers and the small wear and tear on some of the seat sides where they weren't 100% had been corrected.

Safe to say I wouldn't be ashamed owning and driving the car in that condition

Re: Recap of the English F1 fleet - Take 2...

Greg, you are quick, almost as F1
Nice photos, thanks for sharing.

Sorry for newbish questions; is that 275GTB (shortnose or longnose) behind the kid, and where is F1 currently stored, seems like some warehouse of some big cats

Thanks in advance for answering!

Behind my son was a 250LM [could be 6045 but I'm not 100% on that] and a 275 GTB - its at DK Engineering near London
